## Summary
Comprehensive remediation of 146 documentation files to align with Zed's
documentation conventions and brand voice guidelines.
## Changes
### YAML Frontmatter
- Added `title` and `description` frontmatter to all docs missing it
### Settings UI Pattern
- Updated 48+ files to show Settings Editor before JSON examples
- Pattern: `Configure X in Settings ({#kb zed::OpenSettings}), or add to
your settings file:`
- Added `([how to edit](./configuring-zed.md#settings-files))` links for
JSON-only settings
### Brand Voice Fixes
- Removed exclamation points (command-palette, key-bindings, repl,
privacy-and-security, etc.)
- Simplified em dash chains to parentheticals (environment,
troubleshooting, agent-panel, etc.)
- Fixed marketing language (yarn.md intro, development/linux.md)
### Terminology Alignment
- `settings UI` -> `Settings Editor`
- `sidebar` -> specific panel names (Project Panel, Collab Panel)
- `directory` -> `folder` in non-technical contexts
- `workspace` -> `project` in non-LSP contexts
- `Command Palette` -> `command palette` (lowercase)
### Callout Standardization
- Converted various callout formats to standard `> **Note:**` pattern
## Related
Depends on conventions established in #49176.

# Helix Mode
|
|
|
|
_Work in progress. Not all Helix keybindings are implemented yet._
|
|
|
|
Zed's Helix mode is an emulation layer that brings Helix-style keybindings and modal editing to Zed. It builds upon Zed's [Vim mode](./vim.md), so much of the core functionality is shared. Enabling `helix_mode` will also enable `vim_mode`.
|
|
|
|
For a guide on Vim-related features that are also available in Helix mode, please refer to our [Vim mode documentation](./vim.md).
|
|
|
|
To check the current status of Helix mode, or to request a missing Helix feature, see the ["Are we Helix yet?" discussion](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/discussions/33580).
|
|
|
|
For a detailed list of Helix's default keybindings, please visit the [official Helix documentation](https://docs.helix-editor.com/keymap.html).

## Core differences
|
|
|
|
Any text object that works with `m i` or `m a` also works with `]` and `[`, so for example `] (` selects the next pair of parentheses after the cursor.
